Task
Materials
One 10-frame per pair of students (see example below)
[IMG]
Counters, 10 per pair of students
Decks of number cards 0-5 (with 4 of each number) or two 0-5 dice
Setup
This activity is done in pairs. The students sit side by side with 10-frame and deck of cards or dice. If they have cards, the cards are shuffled and placed face down in front of them.
Action
Player 1 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many counters on the 10-frame. Player 2 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many more counters on the 10-frame next to the counters already on the ten frame. The students count the total together.
A recording sheet can be added when the students have been introduced to equations and number sentences. For those students who can handle higher numbers, a deck of 0-10 cards and two 10-frames can be used.
This game can also be played alone.


Standard options: 
A. Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings (Drawings need not show details, but should show the mathematics in the problem. (This applies wherever drawings are mentioned in the Standards.)), sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.
B. For any number from 1 to 9, find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record the answer with a drawing or equation.
C. Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 5 = 2 + 3 and 5 = 4 + 1).
D. Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.
E. Fluently add and subtract within 5.


Thought: This task involves representing addition with objects such as number cards and dice.
Answer: A

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation.

Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system, with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., x-axis and x-coordinate, y-axis and y-coordinate).
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to use informal language and the structure of the coordinate grid to describe a given shape. Some questions may be about properties of the shape rather than its location. For example, “Is the rectangle wider than it is tall?” is a question that eliminates many shapes. As the number of shapes decreases, the location will become more important and the features of the coordinate grid will play a larger role. The synthesis gives students an opportunity to consider how the numbers in the coordinate grid can be useful to accurately describe the attributes, location, and orientation of a given shape (MP6).

5 minutes: partner work time
Monitor for students who:
reference the structure of the grid in their questions
reference the numbers on the horizontal and vertical axes in their questions
use gestures to indicate horizontal or vertical gridlines
use the words horizontal or vertical
Student Facing
Play a round of Guess Which One.
Sit next to your partner.
Partner A:
Mentally choose a shape card without indicating which shape card you chose.
Partner B:
Ask yes or no questions to determine which shape card partner A has chosen.

Advancing Student Thinking
If students do not reference the grid lines or numbers when asking questions, refer to the display from the first activity and ask, “Which words can you use to help you figure out which shape your partner chose?”
Activity Synthesis
Ask previously identified students to share their reasoning.
“How do the numbers help us locate shapes on the grid?” (I could use them to describe the lines and the points. I could also use numbers to describe the location of the shape: “Go up three. Go over 5.”)
“The gridlines with numbers on them are called
axes
. The coordinate grid has a
horizontal axis
and a
vertical axis
.”
